Finally the home power outlet allows 190 Mbps Internet
By using the PLC adapter "BL - PA100KT" sold by Matsushita Electric on Saturday, December 9, you will be able to do the net with a household power outlet. Speed is really up to 190 Mbps. It seems to drop to 55 Mbps for TCP and 80 Mbps for UDP, but it is convenient to be able to use the power line already wired indoors as it is. It is necessary to separately provide a contract with a provider and a router, but this is amazing.
The price is about 20,000 yen for "BL - PA100KT" which set the base unit and the slave unit one by one, and the extension unit "BL - PA100" will be about 13,000 yen.
Details are as follows.

The way to actually use it is obvious from the picture below.

In addition, using electric power lines, that is, receptacles as they are is also affected by electrical equipment connected somewhere else. For example, it is said that the speed decreases due to noise generated by charging dryers, vacuum cleaners, mobile phones, etc. (About 10%)
As for this speed reduction, it is said that the noise filter function-equipped type will be released in March 2007, so it might be better to wait a little more if you want to use it seriously. It is more meaningful to use it for the time being, a person who wants to use it immediately in this place of this room should buy a person who plans to release in December.
The actual connection diagram is as follows.
First connect the broadband router or modem to the LAN jack of the master adapter plugged into the house power outlet, connect the network equipment such as a personal computer, network camera, network printer, etc. to the LAN jack of the terminal adapter plugged into the power outlet of another room Thus, it is possible to configure a home network. It is possible to build a LAN between this master (master unit) and terminal (slave unit), it is interesting.
It is possible to add up to 15 slave units. It is quite a number of dreams.
You can also know the communication speed by turning on the LED in the following way.
The communication concerned is encrypted from the beginning with the AES 128 bit encryption, and it has been set up between the master unit and the slave unit. It can be used without setting if purchasing and connecting to outlet. Size is width × height × depth: about 121 mm × about 70 mm × about 40 mm. It weighs about 240 grams and consumes about 4 watts.
